Measles Resurgence in Ontario: Protect Your Family Now

 

Ontario is witnessing a concerning resurgence of measles, a highly contagious yet preventable disease. With over 370 reported cases, including hospitalizations, the outbreak is primarily affecting unvaccinated individuals. Measles spreads through airborne droplets and can linger in the air for hours, making it one of the most infectious viruses.


Symptoms to Watch For:

  • High fever
  • Red, blotchy rash
  • Cough and runny nose
  • Red, watery eyes

How to Protect Yourself and Your Family:

1. Vaccination: Ensure everyone in your household is up-to-date with the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccine. Two doses provide near-total protection.

2. Check Immunization Records: Adults unsure of their vaccination status should consult their healthcare provider.

3.  Avoid Exposure: If you suspect measles, call your doctor before visiting to prevent spreading the virus.

4. Practice Hygiene: Regular handwashing and avoiding close contact with sick individuals can reduce risk.

Measles can lead to severe complications, especially in children and immunocompromised individuals. By staying informed and proactive, you can help curb the spread of this preventable disease.
